LaTEX and Wiki Posted by Luis Pedro 14 Jan 2004 15:37 GMT-0000 posts: 46 ☆ ☆ ☆ Hi there, Is there anything planed in order to have a convertion service from Wiki syntax into Latex? This would be very nice to write some big documents and then be able to generate a pdf using pdflatex package.

Haven't dug into exporting deeply, but can I get a whole dump of my wiki contents as a bunch of HTML files without the community stuff around it? I have a bunch of ~130 students who have their seminar topics posted in wiki, and I bet they want to take them home 😊 Simon

They generate MathML, not pictures like wikipedia. As far as I understood they use a php script that can convert ASCII representation of math to MathML so no latex or other external progs are needed. http://www.jcphysics.com/ASCIIMath/ Here is their math demo page http://www.istitutocolli.org/uniwakka/MathInsert looks impressive. I'm currently trying to create a TikiWiki based student site at my university, math capabilities are highly wanted there.
